Thank you so much for this. I needed a bind off for a doggie sweater I’m improvising and the tubular bind off for 2by2 rib was perfect. Your explanation was excellent. It seemed so confusing at first but once I got into it and saw why it’s sometimes called a Kitchener bind off, it made sense and I was sailing through. All I had to do was trust you and copy you in the beginning. My bind off looks great, btw. Thanks so much!

Suzanne, with the second method, how do you set it up if you begin with 2 purls instead of 2 knit stitches? I can’t thank you enough for everything I’ve learned from your videos. You’re always my go-to, and my knitting sisters now look at me as a knitting master. 😂

@peanut8337 3 ай бұрын

@Javainthebox I don’t know if you figured this out eventually, but I had this issue myself recently. I did a P1, slipped the second purl off the needle and held it at the back of my work, worked the K1, then put the purl stitch back on the needle and worked P1, K1, P1. Every time I needed to swap a purl and knit stitch, I held the purl to the back of my work, worked the knit stitch, put the purl stitch back on my needle, and worked the purl stitch. It seemed to work quite well and I didn’t notice any difference in doing it this way compared to how it is shown in the video with 2 knit stitches at the start of the row.

I have 290 stitches to cast off and I’m using 4ply/fingering on 3mm needles. I need about 3 metres of yarn to complete the cast off. The yarn becomes overworked with pulling through each stitch. Would it work ok if I use shorter lengths joining them in as I need along the cast off edge, or please could you suggest another solution. Thanks so much. Mary

@SuzanneBryan 2 жыл бұрын

What a great question. Yes, you can make a smooth transition in the round for the bind off. For that last loop on your needle when all the stitches have been bound off, cut the yarn and pull the loop open (do not pull tail through the loop, but pull the loop out). Then thread the tail on a tapestry needle, find the first bound off loop on the beginning of the round and take your tapestry needle under it (like a duplicate stitch) then take the tapestry needle down through the opened loop, to close it, and then pull up until the bind off edge meets perfectly from beginning to the end. Then weave in the end.

Hi Suzanne. I'm currently knitting the DESERT pullover by Ankestrick that has an irregular ribbing at the hem and cuff. The sequence is either K3,P1 or K2,P1. I'd like to do the Invisible/Italian bind-off if that is possible. Would I first knit the last round of ribbing in K1P1 rib, then go from there. Would it look okay . . . or is there a better way? Thanks so much. (Every other bind-off I've tried , ie, knitting in pattern, curls up since there are so many knit stitches!)

@SuzanneBryan 3 жыл бұрын

This is a good question. In order to do tubular or the Italian bind off you need a ribbing with multiples of even numbers of stitches. For example k3,p1 would work great. But k2p1 would not. Try it on a swatch and see what you think first.

Hi Suzanne! I'm very new to knitting and will like to try the second method of bind off but my stitches started in p2k2 and I'm a little lost, how do I do my bind of in this situation?

Thank you for making this video. When you are moving the stiches in the third example is this done on the wrong side row? I noticed you did this on the right side row in the first example. But if I switched the stiches on the right side row and the did the 4 rows of double knitting, i would end up doing the bind off on the wrong side row. Is that correct? I always thought you were supposed to bind off on the right side row. Thank you for any clarification you can give me😊

This bind off looks the same whether you do it on the RS or the WS

Hi Suzanne! I am wondering how one would do the set up stitches if the first stitch is a selvedge ? Ie - it doesn't start with 2 knit stitches

I have a 2x1 rib, and will try this method. But what is the difference between just doing a k1p1 over it instead of making the switches?

My project has a 2x2 rib which starts and finishes with a p1. How can I adapt the the first method you present?

Thank you for this precise tutorial. Do you think it would work with 3x3 ribbing as well?

Try it on a swatch and see what you think

thank you so much for your video! would you reckon doing just 2 rounds of double knitting (instead of 4) make a big difference in the tubular? I usually do that to bind off 1x1 and I like the result, so wondering if it would be the same for 2x2. Thanks again!

@@SuzanneBryan thank you su much! And another question: for the tubular, you mention to still revert the sts to end up with 1x1 before starting with double knitting 4x. Have you worked the row in 1x1 while moving the stitches from 2x2 to 1x1 (like in the first example of bind off) or have you just adjusted the stitches without working them and only worked the double knitting then? Thanks!

You can do it either way. Again, the best way to figure out what you like is to make a swatch and try it out.@@AnnaBraidotti

I really like the look of the tubular BO. I"m trying to figure out how I would adapt any of these for 2x1 ribbing. It doesn't seem as simple as rearranging the stitches when I don't have an equal number of knits and purls. Any suggestions?

@SuzanneBryan Жыл бұрын

These methods require equal number of knits and purls.

Wonderful! Is it stretchy enough for sweater?

@noriskern7385 Жыл бұрын

Do you start on the right side or wrong size? So, the first row where you adjust to one purl one knit is on the wrong side and the bind off o n the right side or vice versa? can’t figure from the video. It’s so beautiful.

It really does not matter. Make a little swatch and try it out.

On the last part of the bind off, in order to have a smooth join, I do it a little different. This video shows it. kzfaq.info/get/bejne/iaiiesunlsW2cok.html
